There are five members on the Temple City Council. They are
independently elected by the people at large for four-year terms
of office. As a legislative body, it is the duty of the City
Council to make the laws and establish policy. Each year the
Council selects one of its members to act as Mayor and one as
Mayor Pro Tempore. The Mayor presides over the Council meetings,
and represents the City at civic functions upon request. The Mayor
Pro Tempore serves in the Mayor's absence. City Council meetings
are conducted on the first and third Tuesday of each month, 7:30
p.m. in the Council Chambers, 5938 Kauffman Ave., Temple City.
